Short answer:  Don't.

Slightly longer answer:  It has the potential for a major headache.  Don't.

Ok - at least some explanation:  If you cannot GUARANTEE that each mail 
server has IDENTICAL configuration, with IDENTICAL FILTERS and 
PROCESSING - you are going out of your way to cause migraines.

If you do have 100% control over multiple mailservers, then it's 
possible - the question is whether or not it's a good idea.  If you're a 
regional mail service provider - then you may need to.  But if you're 
trying to provide reliable filtered mail for your own organization - I 
can't see many reasons for off-site servers.
